LifeRing is proud and pleased as punch to announce a new meeting, open to patients and the public, at Laguna Honda Hospital in San Francisco beginning next Wednesday, July 6th. Every new meeting is a big deal to us, but this meeting has especially important story behind it we’d like to tell you about, as well.

“The exciting thing about this is that the City of San Francisco invited LifeRing to begin this meeting, which sends an implicit endorsement of LifeRing support to the recovery world. Laguna Honda Hospital, which is owned and operated by the Department of Public Health of the City & County of San Francisco, invited LifeRing to begin support meetings at the hospital in April of 2015. After more than a year of discussion, access badging, volunteer orientation, and interviews from both perspectives, we are ready to start.”

Our sincerest thanks go out to the Department of Public Health, City and County of San Francisco, and to Laguna Honda Hospital for inviting us to serve their patients and community. Congratulations to Byron and all new meeting members – we wish you all the best!

Say, we’ve got two different possible meeting convenors from two different New York locations – one in Upstate New York (Albany/Saratoga/Schenectady), and one in New York City (Manhattan) – who would like to start LifeRing meetings and want to know if there’s anyone out there from those areas who’ve been looking for one, so…

If you’re someone from in or around any of those places and would like to go to meetings, please feel free to let us know by:

*The first meeting was held on May 4th; this notification is only now being published as it had been pending while website work was being done.

LifeRing is pleased to announce that Randy R., who is on his own sobriety journey, due in part to using LifeRing as a piece in his personal recovery program, has decided to start a new meeting in Lebanon, Pennsylvania and share it with others!

Randy says:

“I am looking forward to getting this going. There will also be guys coming from the Renaissance Crossroads program that I graduated from, and also from the outpatient groups that I attend. I am nervous but this should be expected…I wanted to let everyone know and look forward to hearing from them…things are really good and getting better. I thank everybody and especially LifeRing cause without you who knows were I would be. Thank you all. I am calling the meeting LifeRing Recovery.”

Thank you, too, Randy!

When: Saturdays at 6:00 PM – the first meeting will be this Saturday, April 23rd
